Speaking as a baltic guy, for us the best rulers were swedes. We have been ruled by swedes, danes, russians, germans and poles. And we only have one saying here “good old swedish times”.

Yes swedish golden age was a thing but swedes haven't been in their "crimes against humanity and invasions" phase for a while, so I didnt feel like they were relevant to mention.

Inb4 some ,ml user claiming they kill trillions every day via capitalism or something

In Poland we do learn about the Swedish Deluge, but I think these days people mostly think of swedes in terms of meatballs and furniture.

They did have their callback to Viking times, that's for sure.
